Viva Las Espuelas, is Peticolas good? A friend of mine handles beer for a bar called Chicago House here drove up to get some kegs from there and I was wondering if their beers were worth checking out, saw you liked Velvet Hammer and they have some of that left.
Had some barrel aged Old Rasputin last night, the bartenders at Draught House said it was the most expensive keg they had ever ordered. It was pretty ing good.
Velvet Hammer is great.
Peticola's Wintervention was pretty good. No idea if it's still available, though.
Peticolas is ing great! I thought DEBC had good stuff but Peticolas is top notch. Velvet hammer is the smoothest 9% I've ever had. Wintervention is awesome and Royal Scandal, their 2012 Gold Medal GABF award winner, is awesome as well.
How are Ranger Creek beers? This place near me is going to have Small batch series 4, oatmeal pale ale, red headed stranger, and lucky ol sun on tap. I really dig bourbon barrel aged stuff, so I'm thinking of filling up on the Special batch, but never tried any if them.
Ranger Creek's Small Batch #4 is my favorite beer right now. It's their Mesquite Smoked Porter, another of my favorites, aged in their own bourbon barrels (they are a distillery also). I also like Lucky Ol' Sun, it's very crisp, light and fruity. Most of the people I know prefer the OPA best, but it's not for me.
Ranger Creek's head brewer left to start his own place in Idaho a few weeks ago. Good luck Rob!
I go to a beer tastery every month.
We come together to taste 6 special beers
This is the 2nd time I was blown away by a beer:

I have had that Barleywine before as well. Very excellent, but does not come close to Three Floyds Behemoth barley wine.
I'm gonna search that one NFO!
Probably would have to do a trade for that one. I live in Ohio (30 miles from the In border) and they are made in Indiana and they are hard for me to get. Good luck thought it is an amazing beer. I get as many as I can when they do make it to Ohio.
Three Floyds is great, just had an Arctic Panzer Wolf three weeks ago, and love the Alpha King too. Their labels are amazing, one of my good buddies' tattoo artist has designed sone of their stuff before. Their booth at GABF is a must stop for me.
How is the availability of Three Floyds down in Texas?
Not available, the same friend's brother lived in Chicago for a while and would bring stuff down
Did you end up going to a release party for Firestone Walker?
My brother ended up going to the one in Draught House, he said he got a growler of Union Jack or Wookey Jack and tons of glasses.. and I think even bottles.
I'm so ing jelly.
I had my daughter that night, but they still had plenty of Firestone beers left last night. My roomate went and picked me up a glass, though.
all I can say is ugh. One of the few BOOMING businesses and they want to either hamstring or keep them neutered.
My asshole brother got 4 of them.
I'm working the taps at the Draught Anniversary in Oct, I will get plenty then!
